Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 441 Ending
After all, Scorpion is just a ninja with superb puppetry skills.

Relying on a large number of puppets, including some high-quality human puppets, Scorpion can possess strength comparable to the shadow level, but in fact, Scorpion is not very strong. Puppets are the puppeteer's biggest advantage and also his biggest weakness.

Because once you lose the puppet.

The puppeteer's combat effectiveness will be instantly weakened.

Even if Scorpion made himself into a human puppet, the meaning would be the same.

Menma has already acquired a higher level of puppet technology from the moon. He doesn't care about Scorpion's technology at all, as he will have plenty of opportunities to deal with Scorpion in the future. On the contrary, as for Kakuzu, whether it is his identity as a traitor to the Takigakure Village or the Earth Ghost Technique that Kakuzu possesses, these are reasons why Menma must get rid of him first.

Accurately lock down the specific location.

"whoosh"

Menma increased his speed to the maximum.

Just a few minutes later.

Menma caught up with Kakuzu who was leaving.

From a distance, Kakuzu looked very embarrassed. It was obvious that Kakuzu could not completely avoid Deidara's self-explosion just now. Ten kilometers is not a very long distance for a ninja, but it only took a short while for Deidara to swallow the clay and then detonate himself. It was indeed difficult for Kakuzu to completely avoid it in such a short time.

This was thanks to Deidara's advance warning, which gave Kakuzu time to react, and he was able to exercise some restraint and control the rate of the explosion a little.

Otherwise, all the kakuzu would definitely die in Deidara's self-explosion, including Obito who pretended to be Afei and teamed up with Deidara in the original work. Without the Kamui jutsu, Obito could only use the Izanagi jutsu to save his life.

ten kilometers!
This is an extremely terrifying range of coverage.

Even the Tailed Beast Ball has never reached that destructive power.

Unfortunately, there is only one shot.

If only Deidara could use such a large-scale explosion technique without sacrificing himself.

In the super shadow seats.

Deidara will always be the top one.

But Deidara will never be able to take that step. Even if he really has such potential in the future, it can only be in the next life.

The fact that Jiaodu could escape from an explosion of such magnitude in such a short time is enough to show his personal ability.

But no matter how the horns escaped.

There is no way to escape from Menma's grasp.

"whoosh"

Menma also didn't try to hide his aura at all.

Almost at the moment of catching up, Kakuzu could sense Menma's enormous chakra fluctuations.

next second.

A blood-red light flashed.

Menma's figure was blocking Kakuzu's front.

Although he had expected this, when he saw that Menma was not hurt at all by Deidara's final trump card and could easily catch up with him, Kakuzu couldn't help but reveal a deep despair in his eyes.

"Should we really say that you are worthy of being worth 500 million ryo? Uzumaki Menma, even Deidara's move couldn't hurt you at all."

Kakuzu said in a very low voice.

Five hundred million taels.

This is Menma's current bounty in the black market. The bounty of the first Hokage was only 510 million ryo. It can be said that in the eyes of today's people, Menma is second only to Hashirama Senju.

But only Kakuzu, who had just fought against Menma, knew clearly that Menma must be stronger than the first Hokage. There was no evidence, just pure intuition. Even though Kakuzu had never truly seen the prime form of Hashirama Senju, he just had such a feeling.

Menma is no longer on the same level as them.

"Hehe, what's the matter, Kakuzu-san, have you ever thought about taking my bounty before?"

Menma smiled softly and said to Kakuzu with an interested look on his face.

"Humph, your head is the most valuable thing in the entire ninja world right now."

A bounty of five hundred million taels.

This is the result of rapid growth in the past year. When Menma just defected, the total bounty was only two Asumas, but as Menma demonstrated his strength time and time again, the bounty amount has skyrocketed.

Menma himself is somewhat aware of this.

In the earliest period of time, they also encountered ambushes from some bounty hunters, but unfortunately, the strength of these so-called bounty hunters was really too weak. The strongest one was just comparable to the ordinary jonin of the five major ninja villages. In the eyes of ordinary people, this was indeed an extremely powerful existence, but in Menma's eyes, even when he had just defected, he was just an appetizer.

After a group of bounty hunters died and Menma's achievements in the ninja world became more and more exaggerated, no bounty hunter dared to look for Menma anymore.

In fact, the Kage of the five major ninja villages also have corresponding bounties, but no one has ever caused trouble for the five Kage. This is a similar principle.

Before, Menma had thought that since his head was so valuable, would Kakuzu, a money-loving man, have any ideas about him? Now it seems that he really had this thought.

All I can say is, this is very 'Kakuzu'.

"Is it valuable? The head of the first Hokage was also very valuable."

Menma said meaningfully.

Kakuzu also fell silent the moment he heard these words.

Worth the money, that's for sure.

No matter how valuable something is, it has no meaning if you can't get it.

This is what Menma wants to express.

Kakuzu was looking at Menma with a strange look at this moment. Kakuzu had seen many tailed beast Jinchuriki, including the first Seven-Tails Jinchuriki in Takigakure Village where he used to stay. They were all very different from Menma. The most direct point was naturally personal strength. The Nine-Tails was undoubtedly the most terrifying one among the tailed beasts.

But Kakuzu didn't believe that this was enough for Menma to gain such great strength at such a young age.

The tailed beasts are tailed beasts, and humans are humans.

Not to mention that Menma hasn't used the Nine-Tails' chakra at all.

This is beyond the scope of comprehension of Jiaodu.

Even at this moment, Kakuzu was thinking divergently, wondering whether his leader who possessed the legendary Rinnegan could subdue Menma.

After all, he had never actually seen his leader take action.

It’s really not easy to judge.

"How about this? Kakuzu-san, you can give a second answer to my previous proposal."

Menma waved his right hand gently and smiled at Kakuzu.

Kakuzu didn't say any more nonsense, and the fighting stance he directly took was already his best answer.

"It seems that this is your answer."

There was a hint of fierce murderous intent between Menma's brows.

"boom!"

At the same time, a powerful chakra aura burst out from his body.

"Whoosh!"

The figure flashed.

He then attacked towards Kakuzu's position.

It was a completely asymmetrical battle from the beginning. Even with all four of them, Menma could easily defeat them as if he ordered dishes, not to mention that there was only the disabled Kakuzu left. It was almost effortless.

Menma easily pierced Kakuzu's heart with the Thunder God's Sword. As the huge amount of lightning chakra spread into it, it quickly burst out and destroyed Kakuzu's remaining three hearts at the same time.

"Um!?"

The trembling body.

Heart-wrenching pain.

The most important thing was the strength in his body that was rapidly receding like the tide, and Kakuzu gradually felt his vision becoming dim.

He held tightly in both hands the sword of Thor that pierced his heart.

"Uzumaki... Uzumaki... Menma..."

These last words were uttered softly.

Then, like a kaleidoscope of memories, countless fragments of memories from the past few decades flashed before Kakuzu's eyes.

Finally, his focus was on the still very young face of Menma in front of him. With the last breath he exhaled, Kakuzu nodded his head and died silently on the sword in Menma's hand.

In one battle, three official members of Akatsuki were wiped out.

Even for Menma now, two or three Kage-level beings are nothing, but being able to weaken the enemy's power is definitely something to be happy about.

"Hey, Obito, Nagato, we are missing three valuable pieces. How are you going to replenish them?"

While sealing Kakuzu's body, Menma looked towards the direction of the Rain Country with a faint smile on his face.

These official members of Akatsuki organization not only help the organization capture the tailed beasts.

There is another very important function, which is to completely extract the chakra of the tailed beast from the jinchūriki, and then put it back into the body of the Ten-Tails - the Outer Path Demon Statue. After all, the Rinnegan does not belong to Nagato.

It is impossible for Nagato to fully unleash the power of the Rinnegan.

He alone had to seal the chakra of the tailed beasts.

It took too long and put too much pressure on Nagato.

In the original work, led by Nagato, and assisted by Kakuzu, Hidan, Deidara, Sasori, Hoshigaki Kisame, Uchiha Itachi, Konan and others, it took two or three days to seal the chakra of the tailed beast back into the Outer Path Statue.

The plan to capture the tailed beasts has not yet started.

That means there are simply three missing official members. Oh, and the traitor of the former Akatsuki organization, Orochimaru. As a result, the efficiency of the Phantom Dragon Nine Sealing Technique will be greatly reduced. Menma is very curious about how Obito and Nagato will fill such a vacancy.

Although it is basically impossible for Menma to give Akatsuki the opportunity to capture as many tailed beasts as in the original work.

Now Menma is the one who holds the advantage.

If Obito and Nagato can still turn the tables, Menma can just kill himself with a piece of tofu. In other words, Menma's plan is to follow the kingly way to unify the ninja world and establish a regime that is at least relatively stable. This is why he needs more preparation time for his own ninja village and his companions. He doesn't want to alert the enemy too early and let Nagato and Obito, especially the thousand-year-old filial son, have a psychological warning. Otherwise, with Menma's current strength, he can directly activate the unparalleled mode in the ninja world.

"Well, now it depends on how you make your move, Runtu."

Menma packed up the sealing scroll and was about to leave.

Suddenly.

An extremely faint breath instantly attracted Menma's attention.

This is an aura that no other so-called top-level perception ninja in the ninja world can detect.

Including Xianglin, she might not be able to detect this special aura even though it was more than thirty or forty miles away and lurking underground.

Only facial numbness.

This kind of atmosphere can be captured very accurately.

"White Zetsu!?"

Menma's eyes narrowed.

"boom!"

That was another burst of chakra.

Menma pressed his body down and rushed towards the direction of the aura.

The distance was shortened in an instant.

Even though Menma had never deliberately enhanced his speed.

But with the continuous growth of his sage body, now in its perfect form, Menma's speed is no longer comparable to anyone in the ninja world.

"Wow, wow, have they been discovered already? You really deserve to be called the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of the Uzumaki clan. Amazing, really amazing."

Menma came closer.

Bai Zetsu also learned about it in advance.

As a White Zetsu who has superb reconnaissance capabilities and the most advanced transformation technique in the ninja world, his combat capabilities are completely poor.

A powerful Chunin can suppress White Zetsu.

Not to mention the numbness of the face.

Once White Zetsu is locked.

Then it's definitely game over.

Therefore, the moment he saw Menma, White Zetsu immediately gave up struggling and immediately passed back the information he had collected through a special method between White Zetsu.

"Another white humanoid monster? I captured one before, but now it seems that these are all things that are exclusive to your Akatsuki organization and can be mass-produced. You keep provoking me, it seems that you don't take me seriously. It seems that there is no need for your organization to continue to exist."

Menma pretended to be indifferent, guessing that the White Zetsu could pass on messages to each other.

Menma also said these words deliberately before taking action.

Say it.

Menma's figure shook.

He leaned forward, with his right hand open, pressing hard on the White Zetsu's head.

"Peng!"

Smash it down hard.

Then came the might of thunder.

"Zizzsssssssssss!"

In a flash, he easily killed the White Zetsu.

Following from that.

"whoosh"

Menma also tried his best to expand his perception to the extreme extent and search the area within dozens of miles. Even if he thought the probability was very low, Menma would still try to see if he could intercept Obito.

Menma always carries the Mangekyō Sharingan with him.

It was not available before.

Now Menma can do the same as Mr. Madara in the original work, plug and play. Once he encounters Obito, Menma will never give him the chance to escape to the Kamui space.

If we kill Obito, the difficulty of all problems will be greatly reduced.

How much of a threat can Uchiha Madara, who is still just waiting in the Pure Land, pose! ?
